Right. Chris Jones said the same thing. He wasn't having any of that excuses shit.

It's why I say I'm not sure what Shanahan did truly would've mattered. If there was a mistake in OT, it was passing the ball on 3rd down and leaving yourself a longer 4th down play that convinced you to kick it.
Shanahan should've treated that gold zone scenario as 4-down territory, ESPECIALLY after CMC had that nice run on 1st down. That was his coaching failure - not taking the ball.

Right. There is a lot of noise about the decision. It's not it. Our guys were made for that situation. Mahomes, Jones, Kelce et al were going to lock in and execute. Their guys win by getting schemed open and the other team makes mistakes. And it almost worked. They had us dead to rights, but it got tight and our guys came through.
1. **** all things Shanahanarat. I'd love to destroy the guy, but he's assembled a hell of a good team and he coached a good game. But he got Mahomesed. Just like Allen, Lamar and Hurts. They played good enough to win, but ran into the best ever.
2. Can you imagine what their team could be if they hadn't biffed up that Trey Lance pick? YIKES.
3. These guys were ****ing good. It's common for us to shit all over teams that Mahomes Mahomes-es. These guys were ****ing incredible and probably beat everybody else, save maybe the Ravens - I didn't watch them get obliterated by the Ravens. But that effort probably beats everybody in the league not named Chiefs. Can you imagine that pass rush against Buffalo? Miami? Those receivers against the Ravens secondary? LOL. They were ****ing good and almost beat us. What we did to win the game was nothing short of incredible.
